    Notes: Summary The neuropathological findings in a Japanese male with nephrosialidosis are reported. Clinically, coarse face, psychomotor retardation, macular cherryred spot and proteinuria were noted at 1 year and 7 months. He was diagnosed to have nephrosialidosis on the basis of a deficiency of α-neuraminidase activity in both lymphocytes and cultured skin fibroblasts, and of severe glomerular and tubular involvement on renal biopsy. He died of multiple organ failure at 8 years and 6 months. There were numerous vacuoles and storage materials in visceral organs, particularly in the glomerular and tubular epithelial cells of the kidney and Kupffer cells as well as hepatocytes in the liver. Neuropathological examination revealed severe neuronal storage in the selected part of the central nervous system; lower motor neurons of the brain stem and spinal anterior horn cells, as well as neurons in the basal nucleus of Meynert. In the peripheral nervous system, sympathetic ganglia were severely affected. There was little or no neuronal storage in the basal ganglia, cerebral cortex or cerebellum, and demyelination was not found. Electron microscopic examination showed fine wavy multilamellar structures in the spinal anterior horn cells or Zebra body-like structures in the neurons of the Meynert's basal nucleus. Lectin histochemistry was positive for wheat germ agglutinin, Ricinus communis agglutinin-1 and peanut agglutinin within distended neurons. We conclude that the neuropathological feature in nephrosialidosis is not specific except for the selectiveness of the anatomical sites of involvement. It shares some aspects found in other types of sialidosis or galactosialidosis.

    Ultrastructural study on nervous system of fetus with GM1-gangliosidosis type 1 (1983)

    Notes: Summary The nervous system of a 22-week-old fetus with GM1-gangliosidosis type 1 was studied by electron microscopy. The tissues thus examined were the cerebral cortex at the parietal region, the cerebellum, the thoracic spinal cord, the Auerbach's myenteric plexus in the large intestine and the radial nerve fibers. In the cerebral cortex, membrane-bound vacuoles, which occasionally contained stacks of fine fibrils, were observed in the large young neurons in the deeper part of the cortical plate. The neurons in the other part of the cerebral cortex carried no storage materials. In the cerebellum, the membrane-bound vacuoles with stacks of fine fibrils were seen only in the Purkinje cells. The neurons in the spinal cord also contained several zebra-like bodies and the above membrane-bound vacuoles. As for the peripheral nervous system (PNS), neurons in the Auerbach's myenteric plexus carried membranous cytoplasmic bodies and zebra-like bodies. Some of the axons in the radial nerve fibers also contained a lot of pleomorphic electron-dense bodies and a few membranous cytoplasmic ones. These results show that the accumulation of storage materials is started in the large neurons which are produced in the early stage of neurogenesis in the central nervous system (CNS). Additionally, the observed membrane-bound vacuoles are considered to be structures which occur before the membranous cytoplasmic bodies and/or the zebra-like bodies. It is also elucidated that the PNS is affected earlier than the cerebral and cerebellar cortices and thoracic spinal cord.

    Evaluation of nonlinear optical susceptibility of polydiacetylenes by third harmonic generation (1990)

    Notes: Nonlinear optical susceptibility χ(3) of polydiacetylenes has been evaluated by third harmonic generation. First, in order to obtain the χ(3) tensor component along the polymer main chain, thin single crystals of two representative polydiacetylenes, poly-PTS and poly-DCHD were made by utilization of sampling technique in microscopy, i.e., the microtome cutting of single crystal embedded in plastic resin. The THG intensity observed was proportional to cos8θ, where θ was the angle between the polymer main chain and the polarization of laser light. The χ(3) value of poly-DCHD was found to be rather higher than that of poly-PTS. At resonant wavelength of 1.97 μm, the χ(3) of poly-DCHD attained 8 x 10-10 esu. Furthermore, it was confirmed that when geometrical correction were properly made, the χ(3) obtained from polycrystalline thin film of poly-PTS agreed well with that from thin single crystals. Secondary, regarding poly-diphenyldiacetylene derivatives, it was found that the π-conjugation between the polymer main chain and aromatic substituents was effective on the improvement of χ(3) values. The χ(3) magnitudes of poly-BTFP and poly-DFMP reflect well the dihedral angles between polymer main chain and the phenyl substituents (58° for poly-BTFP and 67° for poly-DFMP) as a measure of π-conjugation. Especially, at nonresonant region of 2.1 μm the χ(3) of poly-BTFP is about 5 times greater than that of poly-PTS.

    Effects of the surface state of plastics on adhesive strength in electroless plating (1996)

    Notes: Adhesive resins with high adhesive strength and high heat resistance have been studied in developing a novel iron-core printed circuit board with high mechanical strength and high heat radiation capability. A reticular pattern formed on the surface of an adhesive resin composed of nitrile rubber, phenolic resin and epoxy resin. It caused blisters in the plating or reduced the heat resistance of the printed board. This pattern was formed as a result of phase separation of epoxy resin or phenolic resin from the nitrile rubber. Using a high-molecular-weight epoxy resin led to high adhesive strength and high heat resistance, without phase separation. The relationships between the composition of adhesive resins and their characteristics were discussed on the basis of the state of their surface after being roughened by chemical etching. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
